Raghuvanshi, spinners fire KKR to seven-wicket win over SRH
Hyderabad (PTI): The promising Angkrish Raghuvanshi (59) made a well-paced fifty as Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by seven wickets in their IPL match here on Sunday.
Skipper Ajinkya Rahane (43) and Raghuvanshi added 84 runs for the second wicket as KKR overhauled SRH’s under-par 165 all out with ease.
Finn Allen made an aggressive 29 off 13 balls upfront to give KKR a brisk start.

Mystery spinners Varun Chakravarthy (3/36) and Sunil Narine (2/31) wrecked SRH middle-order with controlled spells.
Along the way of his two-wicket burst in his fourth-over, Narine also completed 200 IPL wickets.
The spinner was the third bowler to achieve the feat after Yuzvendra Chahal and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
Ishan Kishan made 42 off 29 balls.
